Still don't understand why people keep complaining about the aluminum, scratches, peeling, chipping. I got my black iPhone 5 on day 1 and it was in minted condition. No scratches, no scuffs, no nothing. I bought an Incipio case as I always do with my iPhones and have been happy with that. If you plan to use your iPhone naked no matter what product it is made it will scratch, scuff, etc
It is the same when you buy a brand new car. It comes in minted condition but once you put it in the road it wont be perfect anymore.
